The Last of the Mohicans

Kedves olvasó, ha már kezedben tartasz, elkalauzollak olyan világba, amely számodra is érdekes és felkelt?. Mai társadalmi helyzetünk elég cudar állapotban van, ahol még a faji kül?nb?ztetésénél tartunk és még mindig nem fogadtuk el egymást. Ezért nem is tudunk tovább lépni. Nem tudunk ?sszefogni és kilépni a rengetegbe, az ismeretlenbe, hogy aztán szétszóródjunk újra és benépesítsük az olyan réteget ahol esetleg mással, de ha nem, akkor egymással harcoljunk az új helyekért. K?nyvemet megosztva egy olyan fantázia szemsz?gb?l mutatom be, elképzelt világomat, melyben t?bb dolog rendbe j?tt, de helyette j?tt más, csak, hogy az élet mozogjon. Ha velem tartasz, végén ráj?ssz, lehet van benne logika, fantázia, és realizáció. Ez a világ olyan utakon jár melyben a fajok megbékéltek, elfogadták egymást, de helyette j?ttek a nemi kül?nbségek, melyet az emberek biológiai okokból nem fogadtak el, de akik elfogatták, úgy vélik ez természetes és lehetséges. Ha ódzkodsz a másságtól, óva intelek a t?rténetét?l, de egyben ajánlanám nagy szeretettel, hátha máshogy fogod látni a világot, vagy találsz benne olyan dolgot, darabot mely hiányzott a puzzle-?db?l, és kiegészíti a te kicsiny világodat.

One of the great novelist’s most popular works, Oliver Twist is also the purest distillation of Dickens’s genius. Like most of Dickens’ work, the book is used to call the public’s attention to various contemporary social evils, including the workhouse, child labour and the recruitment of children as criminals. The novel is full of sarcasm and dark humour, even as it treats its serious subject, revealing the hypocrisies of the time. This tale of the orphan who is reared in a workhouse and runs away to London is a novel of social protest, a morality tale, and a detective story. Oliver Twist presents some of the most sinister characters in Dickens: the master thief, Fagin; the leering Artful Dodger; the murderer, Bill Sikes…along with some of his most sentimental and comical characters. Only Dickens can give us nightmare and daydream together. According to George Orwell, “in Oliver Twist…Dickens attacked English institutions with a ferocity that has never since been approached. Yet he managed to do it without making himself hated, and, more than this, the very people he attacked have welcomed him so completely that he has become a national institution himself.” The novel has been the subject of numerous film and television adaptations, and the basis for a highly successful British musical, Oliver!

Escape Hatch

It came from beneath the sea! The hideous alien “sluggos” have arrived, bloodthirsty tentacled aliens that infest the oceans of Earth, and it will take the best military minds of the Planetary Navy to defeat them. Admiral Bruce Haldane has faced the sluggos in engagement after engagement, and the humans are slaughtered each time. Fortunately for Haldane, though, because of his high rank, he has an “escape hatch”—at the last moment of a military defeat when his own death is certain, he can swap his consciousness with another safe body, a “cannon fodder” recruit who exists only to be ready in case he needs to make the ultimate sacrifice. Paulson Kenz is one of those cannon-fodder recruits, too weak and wimpy to be appropriate for the battlefield, but he doesn’t want to go down without a fight. Knowing that at any moment he might find himself transported into a horrific last stand against slavering aliens, he has to become an even greater military genius than Admiral Haldane himself.
